Reverting the inclusion of an image

Hello Template:Ping. You have reverted two times the inclusion of an allegorical image. Can you explain why? Thanks. Theklan (talk) 11:14, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

OR tagging

Template:U you have tagged the article for OR but not explained what the OR is. If you don't give any explanation, then the tagging won't really help. From my perspective this is an article I've started looking at and IMHO the article is mainly just a bunch of notes at the moment, so perhaps whatever you spotted is easily resolved by adding a source, or deleting some words. Eventually though, I think things can only be fully clear when the body is rewritten with more complete sources etc. Andrew Lancaster (talk) 20:02, 22 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Look at the section on WoN for example. It’s all sourced to the book itself (primary source) with some Wikipedian’s commentary, thoughts, and personal interpretation of it. All this should be based on secondary sources. Volunteer Marek 00:24, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
OK, I don't know if it is best described as OR because as you say someone has at least started with primary sources. I just think the article as a whole as not yet had much attention, but you're right.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 06:22, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Welfare or welfare spending

Template:U, you've deleted the edit which reverted your edit, without any edsum at all. Please see WP:BRD. You should now explain your justification. Do you really claim this sentence is about "welfare spending" instead of just "welfare"? Template:Tq To me it seem obvious that this particular sentence is about abstract principles, and not fiscal amounts? Andrew Lancaster (talk) 20:34, 3 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

I have no opinion on this. My edit was part of a post-move cleanup following the move of Welfare (disambiguation) to Welfare, which was preceded by the move of Welfare to Welfare spending. The linked article and the displayed text remain the same, only the page title was changed. Feel free to make changes if needed. Frost 20:47, 3 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
I agree that welfare spending is wrong here; so, what is best? Social welfare function? Welfare economics? —Tamfang (talk) 02:32, 5 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
I already made a change. Have a look.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 07:35, 5 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
